Customer Protection
Moving is a stressful life event. 1-800-PACK-RAT offers two levels of protection to help reduce some of that stress. We promise to do our best to keep your property safe and secure, but sometimes events occur that can damage your property. Since we are not responsible for damage to your property, it is important to have protection for your belongings for your own peace of mind.
What We Offer
The Basic Plan
Our Basic Plan is a damage waiver plan that covers damage to the container when in your possession. If you select this option, you are not responsible for any damage to the container itself.* The Basic Plan does not protect your belongings.
The Silver Plan
Our Silver Plan combines the Basic Plan with protection for your contents within the container. If you select this option, you can choose up to $75,000 of protection for your household goods and personal effects while the container is in
1-800-PACK-RAT’s possession.*
